The victim is in hospital suffering from a fractured skull, a fractured cheekbone and a cerebral hemorrhage.
A Bronx judge allowed the district attorney to reduce the attempted murder charge to assault, harassment, and a bailable misdemeanor. The blood, like the rivers of blood of other New Yorkers who have fallen victim, is at the hands of Governor Ho-Chol and legislative leaders. Fear on our streets.
